Inside, Invisible Glass and a mirofiber towel, To get near the front of the window I kind of lay on my back and reach up towards the front... Kind of hard to explain but fairly easy to do.
Outside, RejeX and then between RejeX coats Invisible Glass if it get really dirty (Usually by then its time to wash the car anyway).

You need to clean the windows twice to do a good job. First with the windex or invisible glass. Depsite all your attempts to wipe it dry without streaks you will fail. You need to wipe it again with a clean dry cloth - then you won't have any streaks or film, at least for a couple weeks until the vinyl outgasses more crud onto the windshield.

That's about the funniest thing I think I've ever read on the forum. BTW the newspaper cleaning trick worked well for me...

Go to the dollar store and get a blackboard eraser. Works Great!! No fluids required. Just like erasing a chalk board.

This weekend I tried the product I have for cleaning plasma screens and laptop displays, then a micro-fibre cloth. Amazing results.
